GRI Reporting Statistics
The statistics are from the Sustainability Disclosure Database and include information as at 15 May 2013. The Database can be accessed freely at http://database.globalreporting.org. The Database includes sustainability/Integrated reports that GRI is aware of through its Data Partners, the GRI Application Level Check process, registration forms and internet searches. These processes are dynamic; as such, these statistics present a snapshot of data at a particular point in time in order to provide insight into reporting trends. GRI cannot guarantee that the information is accurate or complete. All reports included in these statistics are GRI reports (based on the G3 or G3.1 Guidelines and include a GRI Content Index).
